Does anybody have any experience dealing with Centerprise managed services? They visited our school this week and presented a good case for themselves but I wondered if anybody has any comments on their services?

Is it that bad! I ask as we have just found it! The LEA did provide one but for some reason ours was disconnected and stacked on a shelf. Also just found out when I contacted the LEA that it has just gone out of warranty. Not sure what the next step will be, whether LEA will provide new or ourselves.

As a full time classteacher I have recently taken over the management of a primary school network and we are having problems with the speed of web browsing. We have a 2Mb connection and no cache device so are keen to implement something asap. I have read the BECTA advice but also wondered what other people are using. I need something that can be easily managed and needs minimal configuration. We may be looking for a managed solution in the new financial year but need something for the interim. Any advice would be appreciated.
